Title

Wolfram Alpha Pro

The Office of Information Technology has entered into a contract for Wolfram|Alpha Pro and has made it available system-wide to all staff, faculty and students free of charge.

Wolfram|Alpha Pro gives you a whole new way to interact with Wolfram|Alpha—and immediate access to new, more personal, computational knowledge. WAP is a great resource for teachers, students & researchers. See examples of how you can use Wolfram|Alpha Pro here.

Steps to sign up for & re-validate your University of Minnesota Wolfram|Alpha Pro account:

1. First you need to Create a Wolfram account (if you don't already have one):

After filling out the above access request form you will see a notice that you should check your email. This can take up to 5 minutes to arrive. Instead of waiting for the email you can go on to the next step.

You might need to sign out and back in to fully activate Wolfram|Alpha Pro.

The search page will look something like this (you can tailor the look and feel of your Wolfram|Alpha Pro search page, so yours might look slightly different):

Note that the Search page currently does not say Pro, however, once you perform a search and are directed to your results page you will see that you are indeed within the Pro version. Additionally, the 4 icons that appear below the search bar are usable, in the non-Pro version those icons direct you to upgrade to Pro.

RE-VALIDATING

Wolfram Alpha Pro licenses need to be re-validated once a year, 365 days after initial activation.

If you are currently enrolled or employed and you lose the Pro functionality of Wolfram Alpha Pro, follow these instructions:
